Re: Longbed Question
This might help. I painted mine last week and here is a picture before I painted it. Sorry, can't measure as it is sealed back up under the tarp.

Re: Longbed Question
The thread below shows pics of an original wood bed and the cross sills pretty well. There are 5 of the taller sills, maybe 3" I would guess, 1 that is about an inch tall and of course the rear cross sill. You are correct the wood needs to be 3/4 inch thick.
